These are exactly the same symptoms I am experiencing. I am working on a work-around (other than disabling all Compiz features, which seems to dramatically reduce the incidence of this annoyance).
The work-around is *NOT* a fix. Just a work-around, a kludge, a stupid script that basically kills iwlagn and NetworkManager, then either shuts down the system or reboots it. Hardly elegant, but, hey, at least it's better than having the system simply hang on shutdown barfing all kinds of scary stuff on the screen....

Unfortunately, the top part of that text is snipped because it scrolls by too fast. Is there some way of making the shutdown log to a text file? The laptop then just does nothing after saying "Will now halt". Occasionally hitting Ctrl-Alt-Del at this point will say something like "Stopping all md devices..." and then restart, but it's impossible to tell when this will work and when it won't. When it doesn't, there is no response whatsoever. ** Attachment added: "Image0034.rotated.jpg" http://launchpadlibrarian.net/27984054/Image0034.rotated.jpg -- iwlagn driver crashes, preventing shutdown from completing https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/375924 You received this bug notification because you are a direct subscriber of the bug. -- iwlagn driver crashes, preventing shutdown from completing https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/375924 You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs
